"This is what happens when they aren't playing bottom feeders."

That is still pretty accurate tho.
Going into this Magic are 13-2 vs below .500 and 2-5 vs good teams

We are out two starters and a rotation guy.

Tell i to 76ers, Hornets or Pelicans fans

It's typical nba regular season problem.

This isn't even new problem, last year we also were amazing vs bad teams and pretty bad vs good ones.

I didn't want to play the tournament anyway

Suggs is really making last year's 39% from 3 look like a complete outlier.

He was looking fine with Paolo making plays for him. I'm not worried about his shot. It would be nice if he worked on shooting off the dribble though.

If Detroit lose, we can lose by 36 and still be in the cup. If Bucks lose, we can only lose by 30 to make it.

This is the game people who don't watch us will start getting off hot takes. Great lol

This, I think people haven't realized we played some not so good teams. And even teams that were over 500. we're down a few players too (Example: Suns without Durant and Beal). I think the only quality win this team has had was against the Lakers.

Shaq says we are winning, Barkley says we are better than the Cavs

they're both liars

??

It's not a new problem because we've been an ass team for 10 years brother - we're also the #2-3 youngest team in the league last year. Of course we will be deficient in one area.. or else we'd be the best team in the league while also being the youngest.

We've also never been able to beat the "bad teams" - which we do now.

We were 19-28 against .500 or better teams last year, Knicks and Cavs 21-28 and 21-27 with way more veteran players.

Not worried until we're back one of our best players and we start to become a veteran team (like the Knicks) and losing to similar/better teams.

While this is true, lets be honest, we haven't faired well against teams with winning records, and especially on the road. It's a bad trend, healthy or not.

That we struggle against better teams without our top 1 (or 2 depending who you ask) player??

How are you going to provide rim pressure when the guy you're guarding is one of the best shooting bigs/players in the league and is parked at the 3 point line 70-80 percent of the game?

People don't watch the game, unfortunately.

Ah so you mention the Suns without Durant but don't bother mentioning Orlando is missing their best player. Some of you are just lame fans

No. I believe we all realized it. What was surprising is how good the Magic played without Paolo and Wendell against those teams. Those teams played us without our starters as well.

They are pimping Franz a lot.

2 half needs:

- Suggs to make shots and make a difference
- WCJ and TDS become a threat to do anything on offense.
- Black takes a chill pill and focuses on attacking the rim and running PnR
- Isaac gets an adrenaline shot in his ass so he can defend properly.
- Moe gets hot on offense for the bench.
- No Cole. Just none at all. Give Jett the minutes.

Close the gap and get the win.
